    Definitely in reality though.. :(

    Is wave dash necessary with Sheik?

    Virtually all characters benefit from wavelands and wavedashes. You can interrupt your sprints and change direction using platforms. It's necessary to escape shield pressure etc. Watch vids, see its uses.

    Avalon VI: Nov. 29th, Featuring Amsah, Armada, Ice, Mr-R, Remen and More

    My own way I guess.. When I started playing Green Sheik, there weren't any prominent Sheik players that played that color. You had red Sheiks (CJ), white Sheiks ((Isai sometimes), Drephen in blue etc.. I wanted to use a color of because I wasn't going to be a carbon copy of anyone, I was going...

    It's not about the color but what it represents.The original Sheik. The alpha. :redface:

    L Canceling Is Semi-Bad Game Design

    Though you're right in this specific scenario, this isn't actually what I was comparing. The reflecting part of powershields is indeed something you don't want to always do. I'm talking about the shield lag reduction that comes with powershielding. I was arguing with singles in mind, not...

    Ban coaching

    Not necessarily. I'd just strictly regulate it. Either by banning it entirely or by making it mandetory. Everyone here agrees with you. I said that. And what I meant is the consequences are a separate issue entirely. It's not relevant to our current discussion. When we've agree on actually...

    L Canceling Is Semi-Bad Game Design

    Consistent enough to completely wreck your argument. Besides, how is that a relevant question? It's less consistent than L-canceling, which should make you more against it. No you can't, which is why people miss them. Which happens all the time since your opponent can influence the required...

    L Canceling Is Semi-Bad Game Design

    Armada and Mango disagree. http://www.gfycat.com/GrimWarpedHectorsdolphin# Powershielding is definitely something you want to always do. You can't always do it properly because of your opponent, not because of the mechanic itself. Same thing with L-canceling. It's easy to powershield Falco's...

    L Canceling Is Semi-Bad Game Design

    There is no decision for it in the sense, "Why would I ever not powershield?" That is where my problem with the tech is, it's not like other techs which add choice and gameplay like wavedashing. Automatic powershields for everyone, right?! Riiiiight... I already addressed how it helps...

    L Canceling Is Semi-Bad Game Design

    Why would you ever not tip your opponent with Marth's F-smash? Should we remove his sourspot all together? It opens up defensive options for your opponent. Almost anyone can shffl consistently on FD without an opponent. Most people can shffl consistently wihen they know they'll hit their...

    Ban coaching

    There's nothing to disagree with. It was a fact. This is irrelevant to the point I made. Same reason your opponent cannot randomly have a friend plug in a controller and play you 2 v 1, even if you're dumb enough to agree. Even if I granted you this, how exactly does it support your...

    Ban coaching

    Then we are in agreement.. I misunderstood your position from your earlier post.

    Ban coaching

    So people with coaches don't win 100% of games. This is not news. The point ist hat you shouldn't have to mislead an extra brain or pair of eyes because you're only playing one person.
